A basic type of enemy AI could be coded as:

Give the enemy a number of states - “idle”, “wander”, “spot player”, “chase player”, “attack player” - and perform actions based on the state (aka FSM or Finite State Machine):

State    | Actions
-------------------
idle     | check for player. check if state should be changed to wander
wander   | move randomly or according to predefined move patterns (left-right, to a hidden spot etc)
spot     | maybe give some indication of player spotted, like an exclamation mark
chase    | move to player using pathfinder, move left/right, apply force in direction of player etc
attack   | stop movement and play attack animation
